Remember the days when tons and tons of like-minded people got together to celebrate their passion for a common interest? Sadly, the global pandemic has put a big STOP sign on live conventions over the last few years  so we&apos;ve decided to re-live some great memories of attending our first anime convention: Animazement, in North Carolina.  From getting cash-drained in the dealer&apos;s room to the intense battle in the art auctions, we bring the convention magic back to life in all of its glory.  Oh yeah...Zangief Fan Art, anyone? :P

Our Favorite 90's Sci-Fi Movies!

Welcome to the Y2Gamers Podcast, a place where two long time friends and gaming rivals co-op and talk about a golden age of gaming, anime, and geek culture at the turn of the millennium. Each week, across the Pacific Ocean, we explore a fun new topic through our unique and wacky vantage points and share plenty of laughs along the way! About the hosts: Ming is a long-time gaming enthusiast with a special love for fighting, racing, and role-playing games. He also loves anime, sci-fi, and all things Japanese language and culture. He currently works and lives in Beijing, China...where he misses driving and unfettered internet access a lot! On the US east coast, Nick is an active member of the North Carolina gaming community with a specialty in fighting games and impossibly hard bullet-hell shooters. He is also an avid runner and eats marathons for breakfast!
